Clarinet Fingering Charts, by Kyle Coughlin

Clarinet fingering charts that are easy for beginner clarinetists to understand. If you are confused by traditional fingering charts or have trouble making sense of the circles and dots in most standard charts, see the fingering charts below. For many years, I heard students repeatedly say “I don’t know how to finger that note,” and “I can’t figure out my clarinet fingering chart.” As a result, I decided to design fingering charts that make sense to young students. Each interactive fingering chart has a picture of a real clarinet instead of a series of confusing circles and dots. Two of the fingering charts have sound, and two of them offer alternate fingerings.

The clarinet charts provide beginner and intermediate students with a clear and easy way to learn clarinet notes. The interactive fingering charts require Adobe Flash Player which is a free download. The charts with sound allow you to find the correct fingering and listen to the pitch of the note, so you can be sure that you have placed your fingers properly.
